Heather Graham Just Wore the Prettiest Pink Lipstick You Ever Did See—Here's the Shade and Trick You Need to Copy It

At the Metropolitan Opera in NYC last night, Heather Graham wore a Naeem Khan gown that made her look like an enchanting mermaid straight from a Disney film—and I totally mean that as a compliment. Her makeup was just as bewitching in a classically girly way. Meaning: It was all about pink.

"We opted for a deep pink berry-stained mouth to avoid her looking overdone," explains makeup artist Nick Barose, who used Dolce & Gabbana Monica Bellucci Lipstick in Chic Monica. He applied the lipstick straight from the tube and then had Heather tap some of it away with her finger, then add an extra coat just on the center. "To complement the lips, I gently dabbed bright pink cream blush—Armani Blushing Fabric #1—on the apples of her cheeks and blended it around the edges to give it that cherub look. And to balance out all the sweetness of the pink, I made her brows a bit darker and stronger."
